At first I was all "Fuck yeah! Playing Destiny Thursday!" and told my buddies not following the stream but then I hit the link for more details....."Only the chosen few can play...."

...goddammit.

 

[Am_I_Evil]

hopefully emails actually go out for this (**coughbattlefieldbetacough**)

surprised they didn't require the pre-order beta key for this...guess a good way to let some people try that may not have ordered yet...

 

[tasch]

I think this was the best thing from the sony show, it's the only tangible game that seems to be releasing this year that actually looks good on any platform, aside from the indie games of course.

At least you have a chance!

Well they've literally only shown this game on PS4 so who knows what it looks like elsewhere.

 

[Lasdrub]

Maybe I'll get into this one. I didn't make it into the Now beta, so maybe now it's my turn.

 

[ZServ]

Dammit. I was really hoping it was open to ALL PS+ users on PS4. They worded it in such a way that it seemed like that

 

[HowZatOZ]

What the hell, so no Australia yet you have all these other countries. What gives Bungie? Why do you hate our kangaroos and koala bears? Is it the drop bears?

Put your name in anyway, UK was confirmed by bungie but isn't on that list either. The list seems like a total mix of whatever.

 

[Sai-kun]

Please oh please let me receive a code.

 

[Guymelef]

What a strange selection of countries.
No Spain. no Italy, no France, no Germany, no UK.
WHAT?

 

[VisceralBowl]

Uk is in. Just checked with urk on twitter. Destiny GAF assemble for Thursday.

Proof? Screencaps.

Thanks!

 

[Matush]

Lmao, my country is on the list and yet we still don't have PlayStation store (really).

 

[nataku]

Hope I get in. I thought at first all PS4 users were in for sure based on what I heard in the conference, but I guess not. It kinda sucks it's invite only.

 

[Mokoi]

Wait so if I get selected can I give my code to someone else or is it tied to my psn id?

 

[VisceralBowl]

Updated OP.

Not sure, you will get the code in a PSN message though.

 

[Steamboatgeorge]

I got one but I have an Xbox one might give it to someone on here!

 

[Simo]

I got one but I have an Xbox one might give it to someone on here!

WAT. GIMMIEGIMMIEGIMMIE. lol

I thought codes were going out Thursday though?

 

[HanselBot]

Weirdest list of participating countries ever.

 

[GrizzNKev]

Have my code. My body is ready.

 

[Vire]

Have my code. My body is ready.

Wait, you already got a code? :/

*furiously refreshes email*

Urk, hook a brother up, I know I talked some mess about Destiny, but that was genuine criticism because I care about Bungie games.

 

[Simo]

Damn codes are going out now then?! Awww hell!

 

[VisceralBowl]

I see. Very lucky!

 

[diablos991]

I entered the theater voucher code so I'm guaranteed a spot for Thursday. Can't wait!

 

[rpmboy]

Damn codes are going out now then?! Awww hell!

Pretty sure those people went to the E3 theater showing, as those people get guaranteed access into it. Not the codes from greatnessawaits.com.

 

[JayEH]

So glad they're doing this.

 

[hEist]

where is germany god damn?

 

[Simo]

Ahhh ok. I missed the info about theater participants getting a spot. My bad.

 

[RoboPlato]

Applied. Hope I get in.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

If you went to the theater Playstation Experience and got a VIP badge, it had a url that sends you to a page to put in a code which gives you $5 and a Destiny Alpha key.

So glad I picked up four. Can not wait.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Ah, well if anyone does not want theirs I would be grateful! Hope you all have fun!

 

[Raab]

Xbone 4 days later?

 

[VisceralBowl]

Xbone 4 days later?

This is for the PS4 only. Every console has a beta in July.

 

[rpmboy]

Xbone 4 days later?

That's beta, which is in July. This topic is Alpha, which starts Thursday. Xbone doesn't get this alpha at all.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Please Jesus, if you're real


I need this alpha in my life.

 

[Goodacre0081]

glad this wasn't first come first serve like the Hardline clusterfuck.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

So can't wait to see a lot of other gaffers hitting the servers come Thursday.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Hope I get in. Really want to see what this is like.

 

[MeBecomingI]

Yeah, I'm down.

 

[thetrin]

Not available in Japan. God dammit!

 

[blamite]

...

For stuff like this, how necessary is it that I actually own a PS4 to get a code? I assume I'm gonna get passed over because I entered with the PSN ID I made a while ago online but have yet to actually use. I'm planning on getting a PS4 this week but it'd suck if I was already eliminated from consideration.

 

[Keyu]

People are already getting their codes O_O
Please Bungie gods. Bless me with da alpha. July is too far away.

 

[mcz117chief]

PS+ required, oh man :/
So will the final game have content for those who don't have PS+ or will it be mandatory to have a PS+ to even start the game ?

 

[HORRORSHØW]

thanks for the heads up. hopefully i get in.

I don't think their "getting their codes" as much as they are locking their guaranteed codes in and waiting to get the actual code (Sony theatre people got guaranteed access on the 12th).

The game is online only. So yep PS+ required.

 

[BeforeU]

This better be good. Lots of hopes.

Ok, might as well.

Anyway, what is the difference between ps-id and username ? Is the PS-id the e-mail I use to log in ?

ID is whatever your display name is.
